Dear Mr Mockney,

I think I was more traumatised by the memory of Andy Williams in one of the earlier U tube clips. Why would he never give the damn bear any cookies? Am I the only person who was traumatised by that image in the 1970's?

[mockney piers]

Jimmy Mac, nice Johnny Cash linking there.

Can't do any clever next progression song, so instead I present this to you, there isn't even any music but I watched this on Family Guy last night and laughed so hard I think I actually went blind for a bit.

not for the faint-hearted*

*very juvenile but funny

[mockney piers]

And by way of an apology, one of my favourite covers

The Sundays - Wild Horses

Even better than the Natasha Beddingfield version, if that's humanly possible ;)

[Keef]

I absolutely love that version of one of my all time favourite songs!

[mockney piers]

One for Crystal, well everyone really.

Modest Mouse - Bankrupt on Selling

[CrystalClear]

cool :)

[mockney piers]

If beards and grown men slapping each other with inflated bladders scares you then you might want to avoid this one.

However Sandy Denny, if her untimely demise wasn't one of music's great tragedies I don't know what was..

Fotheringay

Tam Lin

[mockney piers]

And while I'm in a beardy mood:

Will Oldham (bonnie prince billy) - Cursed Sleep

[TillieTrotter]

Modest Mouse - Very flaming lips....i like

[mockney piers]

Ooh, flaming lips. good namecheck. Will have to unearth some of their bits & bobs for sure.

[dulwichmum]

With all of these flaming beards and moody lips - how about a little Gary Barlow?

[CrystalClear]

I had to listen to that again :)

[mockney piers]

It's everyone's room DM, feel free to post up some Barlow if you like.

I managed some tight fit earlier :D

Ok just for you DM, because we love you

Take That - Shine

Damn, this may have to count as a guilty pleasure. I shall flay myself with rattan

[CrystalClear]

Really? And yet you mocked the starland vocal band :)

[Keef]

I always preferred Never Forget, and Back for good :-$

[CrystalClear]

With you on those two Keef B)

[TillieTrotter]

Try this local band... I am loving them at the mo

[mockney piers]

Nice Tillie, I liked it alot.

Judging by the lack of mangy foxes and grimacing joggers, the video wasn't shot locally ;)

Oh ex ozrics and senser. Good heritage.

Mockney - you speak the truth!!

I saw her do a private London gig last month and I almost cried she was so utterly wonderful... She is simply the best thing around at the moment, although I do favour her older albums over the new one.

Also if you like her, try Joanna Newsom: http://www.dragcity.com/bands/newsom.html

She's a bit of an aquired taste but give it a go.

[mockney piers]

You lucky thing, a friend of mine saw her at hammersmith and couldn't stop talking about it for weeks.

Don't you worry Napoleon Solo-k, I'm Joanna Newsomed up to the max. Ys was my album of 2006 too.

Yes I agree Regina's new album is a little too slick, but still has some great moments like the linked Apres le Deluge. I just couldn't find a video to chemo limo ;)

On a similar note I'd recommend Coco Rosie, Cat Power, Martha Wainwright and the wonderful Laura Veirs, to which I lunk a few posts up. In fact I also lunk to Sandy Denny, sort of a godmother to them all I guess (though a dead one obviously).

Martha Tilston is well worth a listen too, I shall dig around. Watch this space.

[Solo-k]

Aahh... Martha Wainwright! She's saved my soul on a number of occasions.

Haven't heard of Coco Rosie or Cat power though, will have a MYspace shuffty now.

On a purely 'check out my mates' tip, have a look at 6 Day Riot: http://www.myspace.com/6dayriot

And on another note, I'm heading to Jazzlive in the Crypt in Camberwell tonight to catch The Dave Warren Quartet... apparently bop blues and latin!

*Na nna nna na na ... on call....* love that new Kings of Leon single....

[CrystalClear]

one of Piersey's, but make's a great break from the cricket...

[it's a great video too!]

[dulwichmum]

Mr Mockney,

You are a king amongst men. That was just perfect. Sigh............

[mockney piers]

I'll kick off the week with the funky Nottingham lads..

Little Barrie - Love You
